Yes, but this new one is pretty much all the Department of Homeland Defense and Security by Taking Your Rights has done, so it's better.

The only part that takes a lot of learning is the Commander mode, which is the least fun part, in my opinion. Learning the maps also makes you better, because at first you will just wander aimlessly around the gigantic maps.
Oh, yeah. I go by Confucious in most games.

#741 H2h In Nerf.

Ok, I'm not sure what kind of people you nerf with, but using H2H in our wars is out of the question. Guys starting throwing punches and guns when they get shot by a BBB from too close. I can't even imagine the chaos that would ensue if I hit some guy with a padded piece of PVC pipe. I can't have people going home bloodied up.
Maybe you guys don't get as into the war as we do. Or maybe you just don't have a bunch of short-tempered teenage guys playing. Whatever it is, H2H won't work for us.
I don't know, maybe a mild sedative would work?

Uh, maybe you aren't as competitive as me and my friends were when you were little, but we made games out of everything, with more rules than one of Calvin and Hobbes baseball games. Rules are needed for a sport, and one hit kill games get old, especially with the 4 people we started out with.

No, but I've got a friend who made an air cannon with multiple solenoid valves hooked to the same switch to increase airflow. Its like the PAC 5, and shoots golf balls a half mile.

East/West Coast rules are pretty much the only ways to play. You either count after you get hit or you don't. Each changes the tactics and choice of weapons drastically, so telling people what kind of war they will be having is helpful. Although, calling it East/West Coast is mostly an online thing, which I assume is coined from the original NIC members different game styles.
Conforming can be good for communication's sake.

Uh, two guys behind a few tables with their BBBs fixed on the only entrance to the room can hold off pretty darn good. Especially when they each have a PC and an extra clip in their lap.
See, we have an auto for about half the people playing. You can't run in or you are dead.
And it's not that they are afraid of getting hurt from the guns, it's they are afraid of losing.

Oh yeah?! Well, YOUR MOM HAS A LOWER CROSS-SECTIONAL AREA!Micros are superior for two reasons.
1. Because of the lower cross-sectional area, they leave the gun at a greater velocity. It takes less time for your plunger or air tank to fill a 1/2" barrel than a 5/8" barrel.
2. Because of the lower cross-sectional area, they are much more aerodynamic and thus retain their velocity better - resulting in greater distance.
Nothing else is really a factor. Any dart is as heavy as the weight you put in it. Any dart flies straight if you make it straight, center the weight, and make sure it's weighted heavily enough.

We use Megas mostly. This is because they are heavier and thusly fly straighter. Not as fast, but isn't dodging half the fun?

Playing East Coast rules, rapid firing guns make judging hits hard. Counting the number of hits on someone can be hard when you are surprised or under fire yourself. And when 1 dart can mean the difference between life and death, set rules are needed.
There are a few ways we use to determine a kill or not:
-Count close quarters hits with automatics as instant kills
-Have low life (5hp or lower) so there won't be disputes about kills
-Take into account the situation (aka,rock/paper/scissors)
How do you handle rapidfire guns? There are problems with all of my solutions, and I'm in need of some other ones. For example, I've often been low on ammo and loaded only every other dart in a clip and held off an attack from just fear. But if I did shoot it, it wouldn't be fair to say that counts just as much as unloading a full wildfire.
So yeah, what do you do?

3 holsters?! Shit, I have 5 of those. Oh, and the Sharp Shooter is THE gun of the gods. I have about 3 or 4 different kinds of darts for it:
The original with the fins
The more normal dart with a pink suction cup
And two others that work for it.

#272 Teamwork:

Whenever I nerf, the teams are almost always different. We try to make balanced teams, changing players, guns, and starting positions each round. We only have 2 hardkore nerfers in our loose nerfing group of 16, so standing teams never worked out for us.
Teamwork is usually present in our games, but in an open area, with small to medium sized teams, a bunch of lone wolfs can take out a well coordinated team.
It's hard to form an effective counter when there's no group to counter.
